Spend a full day in the Blue Mountains on this guided tour from Sydney, led by an experienced English-speaking guide in a group of up to 24 people. The day starts with a 06:40 pick-up from the meeting point at 1-5 Wheat Road in central Sydney, so you reach the Blue Mountains early. Your first stop is Echo Point, where you can explore the lookout and photograph the Three Sisters above the Jamison Valley. Next comes a 45-minute ride on the Zig Zag Railway, travelling through sandstone cuttings and bushland. In Blackheath, a village known for its cafés, boutique stores and historic streetscape, you have free time to buy lunch and explore on your own. The tour continues to Katoomba Falls, where you can walk on the stepping stones at the bottom of the waterfall, and then to Scenic World for three rides on the Scenic Railway, Scenic Skyway and Scenic Cableway, along with a guided rainforest walk on the Scenic Walkway. At the end of the day you return to Sydney by ferry across Sydney Harbour, arriving at Circular Quay at around 17:45.
